The P.I.L. Box – A Better Medication Reminder System Studies show the consequences of patients not taking medications according to doctor’s orders can be serious, especially in older patients.With today’s low cost micro-controllers and sensors (and the incentive of the Radio Shack / Instructables Micro Controller Contest) I thought there must be a better way […]
INTRODUCTION Hi. I’ve built this little device for my HNC project back in the old days (2015). Because I like photography, and my task was to make something using microcontrollers. I’ve made this little device using Arduino UNO, as this was an ideal board for this job (and cheapest). There were quite a few similar […]
In this video we will have a closer look at a USB Type-C Power Delivery Trigger board. Such boards are used to output 5V, 9V, 12V, 15V or even 20V from a Power Delivery compatible power source. So I will be showing you how such a commercial board works and I will try to create […]
This Instructable is part 3 in an Intro to MaxMSP series I’ve just finished teaching atWomen’s Audio Mission in San Francisco. Part 1 is an introduction to MaxMSP and MIDI, part 2 is intermediate Max and Audio, and this Instructable is all about interfacing MaxMSP with hardware. I recommend at least skimming over my last two instructables before […]
In this tutorial we make an LCD shield for using 20 character by four row LCD modules with Arduino Uno. Updated 18/03/2013 In this article you can follow the process of making another LCD shield for the Arduino Uno or compatible boards. In the past (which explains the word another in this title) I made a 16 x 2 […]
In one of my previous Instructables, I showed you how you can use a Stepper motor as a rotary encoder. In this Instructable, let’s learn how we can use it to control our computer. So without further ado, let’s get started! Step 1: Watch the Video Watch the above video to get a better idea of […]
I like to go skating every week but I noticed that the my skates weren’t cool enough so I decided it was time for some lights! I installed these lights on my Dad’s skates as a thank-you present for taking care of the pool for us :D. Thanks Dad! The project is just two RGB […]
Heey my name is Rens Kuilman. For a school project (If This Then That) we had to make something using the Arduino. After a few misses I decided to make a random laser, which I a lazy cat owner could use the get his lazy cat to move. Supplies Arduino Uno [1x] SG90 Mini Servo […]
Here is my instructable on how to construct a pretty simple (for some!) short range infrared rangefinder/range sensor. Infrared rangefinders are very useful in a number of projects. The majority of these come from obstacle detection (in robots) or generally detecting distances! The one shown here is only a simple rangefinder and will only really […]
“Sensor Retouch” touch sensitive interactive instrument which allows to play Water, Fruit, Plants and Conductive surfaces as a musical instrument by your touch. All you need is Arduino and few upgraded touch sensitive sensors, i’ll teach you how to put together everything and let start playing with your new interactive instrument ! A project by Giuseppe Sicurella 2015 Check out the Project and my websites Dharma […]
